Jamey Stillings, photographer

Jamey Stillings (born in 1955) is an American photographer and artist known primarily for his aerial photography of renewable energy projects around the world, documenting the human impact on the environment. Stillings presents at photo festivals, universities, and professional conferences globally. His work is exhibited and published widely in Asia, Australia, Europe, and North and South America. His award-winning book, The Evolution of Ivanpah Solar (Steidl, 2015), documents the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System in the Mojave Desert of California. His photographs are in private and public collections, including the United States Library of Congress, Museum of Fine Arts - Houston, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and Nevada Museum of Art.

Since 2010, Jamey Stillings' focus is on renewable energy through an aerial project entitled Changing Perspectives: Renewable Energy and the Shifting Human Landscape. He has photographed extensively over the United States, Japan, Uruguay, and Chile from helicopters and light airplanes. His forthcoming book, Atacama: Renewable Energy and Mining in the High Desert of Chile, will be published by Steidl in 2022.

Education

[edit]

Jamey Stillings earned a BA in Art from Willamette University, magna cum laude (1978), and an MFA in Photography from Rochester Institute of Technology (1982). His documentary master's thesis, Nicaragua: A Society in Transition (1980–81), examined social and economic changes in three rural Nicaraguan communities following the Sandinista revolution.

Major photographic projects

[edit]
  • The Bridge at Hoover Dam Stillings documented the construction of the Mike O’Callaghan—Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, downstream from Hoover Dam, unique for its historical importance and its technical achievement. Over a two-year period, Stillings returned to document the Bridge sixteen times. A monograph of the work, The Bridge at Hoover Dam,.[1] was published by Nazraeli Press in 2011.
  • The Evolution of Ivanpah Solar Over a period of four years, Stillings did aerial photography documenting the construction of the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System in the Mojave Desert of California. When completed in 2014, this facility was the world's largest concentrated solar thermal power plant. A monograph of the work, The Evolution of Ivanpah Solar,[2] was published by Steidl in 2015.
  • Changing Perspectives: Renewable Energy and the Shifting Human Landscape is Stillings’ long-term project. He has extensively documented renewable energy development in the American West, Japan, Uruguay and Chile.The work has been internationally exhibited, published and collected.
  • Atacama: Renewable Energy and Mining in the High Desert of Chile examines the evolving nexus between renewable energy development and mining in the Atacama Desert of Chile, part of Stillings’ larger Changing Perspectives project. In 2017, Stillings documented new renewable energy projects in the Atacama that are reducing mining's dependence on fossil fuels while supplying significant electricity to the northern grid and transmitting power to population centers in the south. ATACAMA explores utility-scale renewable energy projects including solar power, enormous mining operations, and the stark beauty of the Atacama Desert.
